Very nice flocking!

I would leave it as it is, without wing, it looks more sleek, but se it as you want ! eitherway, another nice example of a stupendous Zee

Really nice model. Good to see you used those rims, they really suit it, i played around with them on my Z when deciding on rims.

That model looks perfect as-is! I think a GT wing will be too much for the rest of the car which is pretty much stock. You might want to try making a GT wing with smaller end plates, a curved center wing section (that matches the body curve), and shorter uprights. To balance the look of a car w/a GT wing it needs to have ground effects, especially in front. I've seen bone-stock cars in traffic w/nothing but a GT wing, and they look ridiculous, like a big shopping cart handle and the car looks like it should be doing a wheelie because of the big contraption on the back.

For the one I'm building (tuner-style, but not as aggressive as the SAS kit), I found that Tamiya's '99 Celica rear wing is a perfect fit. It fits the look of the car very nicely.

that looks really really nice, I think the wing look hot, but make sure it isn't taller then the car's roof

Looks pretty cool. Where'd you get the carpet or did it come with it

I'll sit on the fence on this one......IMO the car looks great with or with-out a rear spoiler.
Nice rims to set it off to
